Biography
I am a NHMRC Post-Doctoral Research Fellow in Burns and Trauma Research Lab, supervised by Associate Professor Leila Cuttle. Our group belongs to the School of Biomedical Sciences at the Centre for Children’s Health Research which is beside the Queensland Children’s Hospital. My research is focused on the quantitative proteomics and metabolomics of paediatric burns, which could assist the decision making of clinicians. I am also interested to apply advanced mass spectrometry based techniques and bioinformatic tools in paediatric burn studies. I obtained my PhD degree in Tissue Repair and Translational Physiology Program of Institute of Health and Biomedical Innovation (IHBI) QUT, to discover potential biomarkers to indicate burn severities of paediatric burn patients.Personal details
